KFRG member, drug personality fall in Zamboanga Sibugay

From the Philippine News Agency (Aug 22): KFRG member, drug personality fall in Zamboanga Sibugay

Government authorities have arrested another kidnap-for-ransom-group (KFRG) member and a notorious drug personality in the province of Zamboanga Sibugay.

Senior Supt. Romulo Cleve Taboso, Zamboanga Sibugay police director, identified the arrested KFRG member as Marjuk Dacula, of the Mamay Aburi and Reming Sabtal KFRG based in Zamboanga Sibugay.

Taboso said Dacula was arrested by combined police and military operatives in a law enforcement operation around 8 a.m. Sunday in Barangay Silal, Payao, Zamboanga Sibugay.

Taboso said Dacula has a standing warrant of arrest for kidnapping with ransom issued by a court in Ipil, Zamboanga Sibugay province.

He said Dacula was involved in the kidnapping of Australian Richard Rodwell in December 2011 in Barangay Pangi, Ipil and of Alexa Dela Cruz in January 2014 in Barangay Kima, Payao.

He said that Dacula was also listed as number one in the watch list of illegal drug personalities in Zamboanga Sibugay.

He added that the arrested suspect was primarily involved in the sale and transport of illegal drugs in the municipalities of Payao, Siay, Imelda, Kabasalan, Naga, and Ipil, Zamboanga Sibugay province.

Dacula was arrested a day after Hasim Calon, alias Gingging and Husien, fell into the hands of the government authorities.

Calon was arrested by combined police and military troops around 4:30 p.m. Saturday in Barangay Tenan, Ipil, Zamboanga Sibugay province.

Calon, like Dacula, has standing warrant of arrest for the crime of kidnapping with ransom issued by the court in Ipil town.
